What is your favorite production glass bead?

I know we all love the TB OOAKs, but I also really love the production glass that TB makes.  So I thought it would be interesting to see what everyone's favorites are...Here are Mine:

Favorite production TB - Deep bubbles - love this so much I have three...so far
Favorite Pandora glass - Blue ribbon murano - actually love all the ribbon muranos, still not sure why they retired them--also not sure why I had to searched high and low to find a second teal ribbon murano and now there are two for sale here
Other company - I don't have any glass from other companies - I do have stones from Sunapee Granite and am not sure I could pick a favorite.

 

hmmmm...this is a tough one, kyhalfpt...if i *had* to pick one as "all time fav"...it'd be the orange armadillo!!

sn: have always wondered if i "need" a deep bubbles....

My favourite production Trollbead is Blue desert. It's the only one that I have duplicates of (just got my 4th) and each one is different.

I have a few glass artisan beads, but I don't know if I could say that I have a favourite glass artisan (and most of those would probably be closer to OOAKs, not production, anyway since they are one-offs or small scale).

If you have three deep bubbles, you clearly need a third teal ribbon murano too, right?    

Moon Ocean.  (I  love the iridesent glaze and the texture.  I have two.)
I don't own Pandora.

Kyang. I have 3. Followed by Black Squirrel, of which I also have 3 but am actively seeking others before they disappear completely..... I would buy more Kyangs, but they have gotten so expensive.....

I don't have a favorite Pandora yet. But I think it might be Orange Python, which they just retired.

As for others, I have tons of Glassbonbon beads and love them all. I also have some from Christa (Luccicare) and Meesmerel.

TB - probably the old Antique Flower, I have two and love the color in them, but the one I use the most is Glass Stone, I use it in most of my combinations.

Pandora - I only have two Pandora glass beads, one of which is Folklore, and I love it.

Mmmmm OAF and Brown dots

Blue armadillo - no question about that as it started my addiction for Trollbeads.

I really am unsure, I love many of them, mostly retired, but I haven't duplicated them... Yet...   The important is that they don't have flowers on!
Pandora I don't own, although I am starting to be tempted by essence...

Definitely OAF azure bubbles grandma's favorite ( the light green base with pink flower)

Golden Cave, a different bead everytime.   

Hmm...I love the deserts so maybe one of the very sugary pink deserts that matches pink prism...It's also very sparkly.

Tatiana....You are my inspiration for use of brown dot...I often use one now to give a lift    

My favourite production Trollbead is the retired Green Flower   

My favourite troll glass would have to be the azure bubbles

Pandora glass would be the cherry blossom, I love it's subtle colour

Oh choices, choices... At the moment it is the Stone Flower with Grey Wolf for a close runner-up. I love how different they look and that they go with almost anything.
In the winter Ice Blue Diamond is at the top (due to two fabulous misunderstandings that I consider to have been fate, I own three of them ).

Golden Cave. I have 4 and its the only bead I would love a boxes full of

Pandora the 4 glass I have are all retired but I like the look of Folklore

Other companies.  I don't have any
     

This is a toughie. Midnight Flowers always comes to mind because it was the first production glass bead I ever bought, but I have three Chocolate Parrots. As a kit, I think Rocky Beach is stellar.

I have looked at your teal ribbon many times--it is a nice one--but I have too many teal beads now     I could post lots of combos with the bead, if you think it will help your sale

Ohhhh that is also a good question, what is your favorite glass kit? I don't have any kits, but would love to know which are everyone's favorites.

I like violet flower I have only 1.

Rocky Beach Kit without a single doubt! I did not get mine as a set because I did not know at the time that I would love it sooo much - but now it is complete with one each extras of the stone flower and fossils
I totally love those beads

   I will likely just keep it if it doesn't sell. It was my favourite Pandora glass, but then I took apart the bracelet that it was on and sold off the other beads so it doesn't have any friends anymore. But I've considered keeping it in case I get a Peacock bead.

My very favorite is OAF, my favorite still in production is the fireflies bead.

I currently love grey wolf the most, followed by purple stripes, azure bubbles and the auroras (stripes and flowers).
